FCC Rules and Regulations - Part 68

FCC Rules and Regulations - Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the back of the modem card is a label that contains,
among other information, the FCC Registration Number and ringer equivalency number (REN) for this equipment. You
must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all those
devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most but not all areas, the sum of the RENs of all devices
connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your
line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for
your calling area.
If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your
service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified
as soon as possible. You will be informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the
proper functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain
uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact ZOLL Medical Corporation for information on
obtaining service or repairs. The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the network
until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is NOT malfunctioning.
There are no user serviceable parts contained in this equipment.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is
subject to state tariffs.
Shielded Cables
The use of any cable other than the shielded type will allow your system to emit more radio frequency interference than
the FCC limits, thereby increasing the likelihood of interference. Therefore, in order to comply with the FCC
regulations, it is necessary that you use good quality shielded cables with your installation.
Canadian Requirements
The Industry Canada (formerly the Canadian Department of Communications) label identifies certified equipment. This
certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety
requirements. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that their local telecommunications company permits connecting
it to their facilities. The equipment also must be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases,
the company's inside wiring associated with single line, individual service may be extended by means of a certified
connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above
conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the
supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment or equipment malfunctions may give the
telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure, for their own protection, that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone
lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly
important in rural areas.
To prevent overloading, a Load Number (LN) has been assigned to each terminal device to denote the percentage of
the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device. The termination on a loop may consist
of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the total number of devices not exceed one
hundred.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact electric inspection authorities or
electricians, as appropriate.
